# DateTime::HiRes(3pm)

Create DateTime objects with sub-second current time resolution

## NAME

DateTime::HiRes - Create DateTime objects with sub-second current time resolution

## VERSION

version 0.04

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use DateTime::HiRes;
    my $dt = DateTime::HiRes->now;
```

## DESCRIPTION

This module enables you to generate DateTime objects that represent the current time with sub-second resolution.

## METHODS

This class provides the following methods:

### DateTime::HiRes-\>now( ... )

Similar to `"DateTime->now"` but uses `"Time::HiRes::time()"` instead of Perl's `"CORE::time()"` to determine the current time. The returned object will have fractional second information stored as nanoseconds. The sub-second precision of `"Time::HiRes"` is highly system dependent and will vary from one platform to the next.

Just like `"DateTime->now"` it accepts "time\_zone" and "locale" parameters.

## CREDITS

Everyone at the DateTime `"Asylum"`.

## SEE ALSO
